Kan, special says: Snow commenced
falling here yesterday morning and has
come down steadily ever since. Later in
the day a blizzard set in from the north
and has hourly increased in violence
Adyices are to be the effect that the bliz-
zard is general over the West and that it
has caught the country without any ade-
quate supply OF coal 1t is known that
the railroad companies have from some
cause failed to supply the demand on the
plains There is great fear that much
